I want my sweater to last a long time is there a better way of washing them, should i just dry clean them??
1) Don't dry clean them - drycleaning is quite harsh on fabric as the chemicals are quite strong.

2) What I would do is, don't put your sweatshirts in the dryer, but don't hang them up either (they'll stretch out from the weight of being damp). Place a towel on the carpet or floor and lay out your still damp sweatshirt on it.

3) You might want to try the gentle wash cycle too, just so that the washer drum is not agitating as vigorously. Maybe use cold or warm. Don't use HOT!
